INTRODUCTION
Oil yields are reported as net lbs oil/a.
Objectives and Procedures
Sunflower performance tests were conducted in 2004 by
the Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station to provide
farmers, extension workers, and private industry with
unbiased agronomic information on many of the
sunflower hybrids marketed in the state. Tests were
financed in part by entry fees from private companies.
Companies known to be developing and marketing
sunflowers were invited to participate and enter hybrids
on a voluntary fee-entry basis. As a result, not all hybrids
grown in the state were included in tests, and hybrids
were not grown uniformly at all locations.
Seed-size percentage analysis for confectionary-type
entries was performed at the Northwest ResearchExtension Center on cleaned samples submitted from
each of the tests. Separation by seed size was made by
screening a weighed sample through a series of six sieves
(22/64, 21/64, 20/64, 19/64, 18/64, and 16/64-round
holes) secured on a Ro-Tap mechanical shaker.
Seven test locations in 2004 included Ellis, Thomas,
Sherman, and Greeley Counties – on fallow; Thomas and
Greeley Counties – irrigated; Reno and Harvey Counties
– dryland, continuous crop. The test in Sherman County
had to be abandoned because of drought conditions.
Oilseed entries were grown at all locations.
Confectionary entries were evaluated only in Thomas and
Greeley counties. Oilseed and confectionary entries were
planted separately in all tests. Entries were planted in
four-row, replicated plots at all locations. To ensure
uniform and adequate stands, all tests except those in
Thomas and Sherman counties were planted at a high
seeding rate and were hand thinned after emergence to
desired stands. Tests in Thomas and Sherman counties
were planted to stand with a modified Monosem Vacuum
Planter.
Environmental factors affecting test results and cultural
practices are discussed individually for each of the test
sites. Test results for 2004, and period-of-years average
data, are included in Tables 1 through 15. Entrants and
entries in 2004 tests are listed in Table 16.
Data Interpretation
Yields are reported as lbs seed/acre adjusted to 10%
moisture content.
Days to half bloom is number of days from date of
planting to date when 50% of plants were in bloom.
Lodging percentage is based on counts of lodged and
total plants in harvested areas at all locations.
Statistical analysis: Conducting perfect tests is virtually
impossible because soil fertility, moisture, and other
environmental factors vary. Therefore, small differences
in results may have no real meaning. To help interpret
data, we applied a statistical technique, analysis of
variance, wherever possible. Such analysis requires
repeating whole sets of varieties or treatments several
times and placing individual varieties or treatments as
they would be placed by chance alone. Results of the
analyses are reported in terms of least significant
differences (LSD). If two means differ by more than the
LSD (.05), such a difference would be due to chance
variation only 5% of the time. So, it's 95% probable that
the difference was due to treatment. If means do not
differ by as much as the LSD, then little confidence can
be placed in the importance of varietal or treatment
differences. The coefficient of variability (CV) represents
an estimate of the precision of replicated yield trials.
Trials with a CV ranging from 10 to 15% are usually
acceptable for performance comparisons. Trials with a
CV greater than 15% provide only a rough guide to
hybrid performance.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Cooperation of research center personnel who performed
many of the field operations is sincerely appreciated.
Vicki Brown, secretary, and Kraig Roozeboom,
coordinator – Kansas Crop Performance Tests, assisted in
preparing this report, and temporary workers Samantha
Wolf and Jordan Harris helped with seed counting, plot
thinning, and maintenance. Mary Knapp at the Weather
Data Library provided climatological data, and James R.
Cochrane, Assistant Scientist, posted data to the Kansas
Crop Performance Test web site.
Oil percentage was obtained from samples submitted
under code number to the Kansas Grain Inspection
Service for analysis and is reported on a 10% moisture
basis. Samples for all tests were derived by compositing
replications by entry for each location and subsampling.

Smolan silt loam; Wheat in 2003

Precipitation (inches)
80 - 0 - 0 lb/a N, P, K
Excellent conditions at planting. Plots were hand
thinned. In July and August, temperatures were
below normal, with only 3 days at or above 100
degrees. Rainfall was above normal in July, but
below normal in August. Stalk rot contributed to
lodging that caused yield loss and variabilty.
Lodging accounted for approximately 15% of yield
variation beyond that attributed to hybrid.

Northwest Research-Extension Center, Colby; Patrick Evans, agronomist
Target stand of 14,900 plants/acre; Keith silt loam; Fallow in 2003
Excellent stands. Summer was hot and very

Excerpts from the UNIVERSITY RESEARCH POLICY AGREEMENT
WITH COOPERATING SEED COMPANIES*
Permission is hereby given to Kansas State University to test varieties and/or hybrids designated on the attached
entry forms in the manner indicated in the test announcements. I certify that seed submitted for testing is a true
sample of the seed being offered for sale.
I understand that all results from Kansas Crop Performance Tests belong to the University and the public and shall
be controlled by the University so as to produce the greatest benefit to the public. Performance data may be used in
the following ways: 1) Tables may be reproduced in their entirety provided the source is referenced and data are not
manipulated or reinterpreted; 2) Advertising statements by an individual company about the performance of its
entries may be made as long as they are accurate statements about the data as published, with no reference to other
companies’ names or cultivars. In both cases, the following must be included with the reprint or ad citing the
appropriate publication number and title: “See the official Kansas State University Agricultural Experiment Station
and Cooperative Extension Service Report of Progress 936, ‘2004 Kansas Performance Tests with Sunflower
Hybrids,’ or the Kansas Crop Performance Test Web site, www.ksu.edu/kscpt, for details. Endorsement or recommendation by Kansas State University is not implied.”
